    ORDER OF THE BOARD (by C.A. Manning):
    On September 23, 1999, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) and petitioner
    filed a request for extension of the 35-day appeal period pursuant to Section 40 of the Environmental
    Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/40(a)(1) (1998)), relating to an August 13, 1999 Agency determination.
    On November 12, 1999, the Board received petitioner’s petition for review. The final determination
    concerns petitioner’s site located on Interstate 90, in Belvidere, Boone County, Illinois. The Board
    accepts this matter for hearing.
    The Board’s rules require that the Agency file the entire Agency record pertaining to its review
    of the site classification work and budget plan within 14 days of notice of the petition. See 35 Ill. Adm.
    Code 105.102. Hearing must be scheduled and completed in a timely manner, pursuant to the
    applicable statutory decision deadline, or the decision deadline as extended by a waiver. See 35 Ill.
    Adm. Code 101.105.
    Absent any future waivers of the decision deadline, the statutory decision deadline is now
    March 11, 2000 (120 days from November 12, 1999); the Board meeting immediately preceding the
    decision deadline is scheduled for March 2, 2000.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
    Board Member N.J. Melas abstained.
